Summary

A masterwork from acclaimed historian David Nasaw, The Last Million tells the gripping yet until now largely hidden story of postwar displacement and statelessness and of the people who stood as living testimony to the inescapable consequences of war. By 1952, the Last Million were scattered around the world, and carried with them their wounds, fears, and secrets, as they crossed from their broken past into an unknowable future. Here for the first time, Nasaw illuminates their incredible history and, with profound contemporary resonance, shows us that it is our history as well
